Quote of the Day

“On Detroit-SF coach incident, fortunately, there was no fighting and thus no basis for a fine.  However, both coaches told Ray Anderson today that their post-game conduct was wrong and will not happen again.”
                                                                       -Greg Aiello, NFL Spokesman

I know I'm absolutely the first one to rip people who always inject racist/sexist/communist undertones into every situation, but for once I'm jumping on that train.  Sort of.  If two players had started a shoving match during the end of game hand shake, Roger Goodell would have slapped them so hard with the long dick of NFL discipline that they'd have to ice the mushroom tattoos on their cheeks.  But since it's two coaches (insert two white, male head coaches if prefer), they get a warning?  I just puked in my office trashcan from how hypocritical this is.  The players should be absolutely outraged.  Both coaches told the league it was wrong and won't happen again huh?  Well isn't that fucking bonkers for them then.  I wonder if Roethlisberger, Vick or Plaxico had tried that same line- how would that have worked out?  Oh wait, I'm sure they did and they missed a combined 4 years of football.  Granted, what they did was far worse, but if you're going to hand out discipline, do it fairly -- not like a giant douchebag.
